I sweat for the first time since the injury

Hot Yoga. I lay in the room for a half hour before and after, just letting my body sweat.

A salt baptism to remind me of strain.

I rocked the whole class. I knew the poses from previous practice and I know my limits. I felt beastly again. I had an amazing instructor who showed me alternative poses for when my leg couldn't join.

My plans to lie and soak in the heat gave way to a joyous lengthening and strengthening as I wrang sweat from every pore.

I haven't felt as capable or assured of my body in months. It was glorious!

I'm going back next week

Saw a surgeon today for a consult…

I liked him.

He didn’t lie.

He told me flat out he couldn’t do my surgery because of all my health issues. He isn’t comfortable performing the surgery when he doesn’t even have specialists that I may need to be seen by if things go sideways.

I have surgical clearance from my team of over 20 doctors but I’m too complex.

He also told me they don’t schedule surgeries unless insurance has entirely accepted everything from them. The previous surgeon didn’t do that.

I drove almost 3 hours to see him. He could have told me that over the phone but I do appreciate him seeing me, making time for me and legit talking me through it all.

If you haven’t booked yourself into a class this week, don’t miss out!! Last classes for a while, as bi-lateral hernia surgery finally taking place this Saturday August 22nd after waiting for the last 7 months 😱😱. Hence no fancy footwork or videos, been working out safely and working within my own limitations. Thanks once again for all the support over the past 22 weeks. Made good use of the colourful Instagram animations!! 👀👏🏼👀👏🏼 . . . . . What happened to week 21, I think I missed the boat on that one, too busy running around for preop test, blood work, preop paperwork big time. Tomorrow more blood work, Covid swap and then isolation until Saturday morning...YAY. Stay well, keep moving, stay safe and if I don’t see you this week, see you post op when I am allowed to return. . . . . . #pilates #prehab #presurgery #hernia #inguinalhernia #pilatesinstructor #pilatesmatwork #pilatesguy #pilateslondon #london #stottpilates #seeyousoon #bodyinsync (at Greenwich West, London) https://www.instagram.com/p/CECNiQ8DHhj/?igshid=19gy5yl6wr7yo
